Flag Tradition

Indiana Guardsmen, donned in masks, came together to hold up a football field sized flag at the Shelbyville Aviation Flight Facility, Ind., Aug. 13, 2020. In the past, this tradition is performed live for the national anthem during Indianapolis Colts pregame ceremonies. However this year, guardsmen participated in a prerecorded version to keep the tradition alive but in a safe, responsible manner.
